[gcompris-devel] Running an activity out from GCompris

[Jaume Obrador]

Thanks a lot, it has been very useful. I anaged to install the electric
application into my system. Now I need some more help from you:

I would like to modify the game, making an smaller icons, changing code
to fit new sizes (I already done this, downloading the full
gcompris-electric-9.1-3.tar.bz2 and changed the code), but I need to put
this changed application on the air. I tried to upload that file on a
server of mine, and change the electric.xml to reflect the server
change, but I get some security errors. My question is

- Can I build a deb self-installation file for ubuntu?
- Can I simply tar.bz2 again the modified files and install on a new
computer without having to use zero install?

Sorry to be so confusing, what I really need, in a few words, is to
modify the activity on my PC and share it with about 40 netbooks on my
class and run it.

Kind regards,
Jaume.
